Good news for Bitcoin: New CPI data suggests inflation has peaked | Find out now on Market Talks with Tim Warren and Caleb Franzen

Published at: Aug. 11, 2022

In this weeks episode of Market Talks we welcome senior market analyst at Cubic Analytics, Caleb Franzen.

Caleb is a Senior Market Strategist at Cubic Analytics, analysing new data/charts on the economy, the stock market, and Bitcoin to make better investment decisions. He is also a former corporate banking & portfolio analyst.

The main topic of discussion with Caleb will be the new CPI data and what they mean for the crypto market, specifically Bitcoin (BTC). Is there a correlation between the data and the recent price pump? How sustainable is this price action?

We also go over a few of Caleb’s tweets where he explains which indicators he looks at when analysing charts. One indicator he finds particularly interesting is the 78-week Williams%R oscillator. We get into why it’s important and how it can help.

Something that might be looming over everyone’s heads is whether the recent Bitcoin pump is a fake out and if we could actually go lower before we break through $30K. We get Caleb's thoughts on this as he and Tim try to figure it out.

Ethereum (ETH) has been performing particularly well recently with all the news and hype surrounding the merge from proof of work (POW) to proof of stake (POS). Does this mean that the merge has already been priced in or can we see a rally when the merge actually takes place in September? Could this be a classic case of buy the rumour sell the news?

Tune in to have your voice heard. We’ll be taking your questions and comments throughout the show, so be sure to have them ready to go.

Market Talks with Crypto Jebb streams live every Thursday at 1 pm ET (5:00 pm UTC). Each week, we feature interviews with some of the most influential and inspiring people from the crypto and blockchain industry. So, be sure to head on over to Cointelegraph’s YouTube page and smash those like and subscribe buttons for all our future videos and updates.

Bitcoin price clings to $38K, but Dollar Index bounce could put BTC under pressure
A recent run-down in the United States Dollar Index (DXY) stopped midway as investors awaited U.S. job data for a guide on the viewpoint for interest rates. Meanwhile, Bitcoin (BTC) moved inversely to the greenback. The DXY rose to its intraday high of 92.195 on Wednesday, up 0.45% from its Friday low of 91.782. The move upside took the index back above its 200-day exponential moving average (200-day EMA; the pink tide in the chart below), at 92.001.

$60K is now more likely for Bitcoin than $20K, Bloomberg's senior strategist asserts
Bitcoin (BTC) has a better probability of recovering back to $60,000 than breaking below its current support level of $30,000 to target $20,000, believes Mike McGlone, senior commodity strategist at Bloomberg Intelligence. A screenshot from McGlone's latest analysis on the flagship cryptocurrency, first shared by Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas, shows him comparing Bitcoin's ongoing price action with the "too-cold" period of the 2018–2019 trading session. In detail, the BTC/USD exchange rate entered a prolonged consolidation period near $4,000 following an 80%-plus crash in 2018, but a sudden run-up in 2019 sent its prices to as high as $14,000 …
